Is the "Windows compatibility mode" an automatic feature, or do you have to manually look for Wine, install it and configure it and look for Windows drivers having to be adapted in order to be configurable inside Wine?

Ubuntu 10.10 it does not look different
yordan replied to zenia's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Thanks, vistz @zenia : please have a look at the existing forum topics or use the "Search" button before opening a useless new thread if an existing thread already exists on the same subject. Rather add your own opinion on the existing topics. Thread closed. -
Maybe we could add a poll in this topic? Naming the programming language we like? Which ones should be proposed for voting?I see Java.I see C++I see basic languageDo you see other ones?Personally I loveFortranUnix ksh scripting (csh far less)ms-dos bat scripting filesAnd don't forget SQL , namely SQL*plus for Oracle databases.And slightly less : cobolSo, shall we add a poll? With which languages? Answer here and I will gather your ideas and let's see how the poll will behave. :)Of course, the roadmap is that way :You say if you like the ideazenia agrees with the topic modification.And then you vote.

And when was this? Three months ago? Twelve years ago?

Why Do Some People's Mycents Show Up As A Very Large Negative Number?

This will not occur.If you see a spamming topic, do not reply, just Report the spam and you have no trouble. If a legitimate topic starts, it's OK. You replay this legitimate topic, it's still OK. If spamming answers appear in a legitimate topic, only the spamming answers will be deleted, not yours, so you will loose no credits. -
No real contradiction, maybe just a historical misunderstanding.OK, the promotional plan is exactly what it's name says : a promotion.Standard user should better choose the "logic plan", which is enough for most standard usage.And, if you have a look, you will see that the promotional plan is about twice cheaper, but offers less disk space, is devoted to small websites, and asks you to have $10 inside your account balance (from posting for instance) or to send $10 from your PayPal account. If you really currently have $10 in your account, you will probably want to post from time to time in order to earn the $10 for your next day invoice next year. So, you will automatically need to post on a regular basis.The only real problem will occur if you don't have enough $$ inside your credit balance and you don't have time for posting.You know, you cannot have everything without effort.Asta provides very professional hosting provided that you post on the forum, which means you give us your work and we provide you with ads-free hosting. If you prefer you can send money through PayPal in order to sustain your hosting. If you don't want to work and you have no money, you should choose another solution.Our sister hosting site qupis.com is there for that purpose. You register at qupis.com and you get hosting without any money nor posting, if you accept a one-line ads at the bottom of your webpage.

Who Is Your Favourite Free Host? whats your fav free host?
yordan replied to teartrack_sos's topic in General Discussion
No real need to change the poll options. Geocities has 1.2% votes and Hostclix has 0% So leaving them here does not significantly change the results. Moreover, people have voted for them, we cannot simply destroy these votes. -
This is not the technical answer we expect here. We want you to tell us which software you use, if you are satisfied with it. As stated, there a lot of such ones around here, which one are you using, which are it's strong points?

I guess that, as usual...If you buy your PC from a manufacter, it's shipped with Windows 7, including all the drivers. If you happen to change to another graphic display or another burner or another sound card, you will need to buy it with it's own driver. And, of couse, some of the audio adapters don't have a decent "seven" driver.

Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat Beta Is Available!
yordan replied to H.O.D's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Please switch to topic http://forums.xisto.com/topic/97799-topic/?findpost= If the final release is available, no more interest discussing about the beta version... -
Which is prechisely what I do each time I install a system : I love the way these sites scan your computer and tells you "click here" for each missing driver.

I can imagine that you fond somebody who can temporarily provide you with a spare hard disk. You backup the whole content of this disk on an external storage (like a USB disk), you remove your own disk and put this one, you install Windows, and see if it has the same problem.That's what I stated when I said "we could imagine". I guess that this is what a guy in a repair shop would do, in order to clarify the situation and make a real diagnostic.
-
Not at all, I think exactly the same way as you do : if it works correctly with a LiveCD Linux, this means that the problem is not coming from the cpu, nor the memory, nor the graphic display or the Ethernet card. This helps gratly making a diagnosis.And we could imagine borrowing a hard disk in order to see what happens with a fresh Windows install.

OK.So, the address is correct, and your friend is able to read his mails.This means that Yahoo does not accept 4 megs files. gmail has no problem receiving big files, but Yahoo has to accept sending them.Now, the best thing is to upload your files to fileserver like uploadingit.com. You mail your friend the link to the file, when he will click the link it will download the file on his PC, and then you will be able to remove the file from the server.This is the standard way for sending files, a lot of mailer do not accept attachements more than some hundreds k.
-
Did you try to simply send a mail without any attachment? This could clarify the mail provider change ability.Then, when your friend answers, this will check the two-ways path. And when you answer, add your files, this will check attachment handling functionality.You have to check each one of these steps because sometimes the problem is inside the attached files, for instance the mailer is sometimes unable to perform a virus check.

You're probably right. However, I would be curious seing what happens if, on a "decent" system configuration smoothly running seven, what happens if we downgrade to XP? Would it not run faster, because needing less resource so being very performant on a fast system?The only real answer would be, on a given high-end system, running calibrated tests (for instance opening a huge powerpoint document or convering a big wav file) on both operating sysgtems in the same hardware.

The problem is not coming from the processor. As long as it' a Windows-32bits game, it will work on any Windows hardware, whether it's Intel or AMD. The difference will come from the graphic and mouse adapter : if the game uses some ATI hard-coded instructions, it will not work on non-ATI adapters, for instance. That's why clever game conceptors create games supposed to work on all home PC's. Of course, if you are talking about price/performance ratios, then AMD could be more interesting, but it's not a question of processor types, it's a matter of manuferturers pricing policies.

Simply Bzip2'ing A File? Should be simple, but not quite so :)
yordan replied to tgp1994's topic in Programming
For portability's sake it would be safer to find what's wrong in your way using the python library.If it's a one-shot, "quick-and-dirty" thing, you can try using the bzip binary, provided that it's your own server and you know where the binaries are. -
I would also try to run a Linux like Puppy Linux during a couple of hours, to see if it has the same problem. If you can surf on the web with a Linux distro (booted off a USB flashdisk) without a problem on the same PC, this would mean that it's not related to the hardware or to the memory, only to Windows things.
